    I've been having problem while refreshing the news feed at Instagram.
    Also Facebook and Messenger are not responding great.
     
    Anybody else having that problem?

    She needs to find out who is currently her guardian. I would assume her brother since he has moved in despite being abusive. So:
     
    She needs to:
     
    1. Stay at her guardians house
    2. Report any abuse to the authorities and CPS (shit is gonna suck but the wheels of bureaucracy take a while for prosecution) 
    3. Reach out to the government provided services for any assistance and legal help she needs
     
    Sure the law can be a bit slow, but there are a LOT of assistance programs for minors and abuse victims. I will gladly constantly repeat that these are there and help with additional resources as additional information is available. I'd rather do that than:
     
     
    Oh well, guess you'll just have to be homeless, starving, and abused - Wasab
     
     
    Regardless of everything, we are here to help her. If you do not have constructive advice, please leave.

    You need the money you can get from selling that PC. You can always buy a new one later when you get your life back in shape.

    Err?
    Plenty of children die in their own homes with their parents too. The vast majority are going to be fine. I think you're giving a bad rap to foster carers.
    In this situation they would most likely be put in emergency foster carers home, which would typically be parent(s) with just a few children in their care at most - not a full state run orphanage. I've known several wonderful people who have provided emergency foster care, and typically it would be similar situations where the parents have been arrested or taken in to mental institutions/court ordered rehab and the children need emergency temporary care for periods of a few months, to maybe a few years, yet the ultimate goal is for the children to be reunited with the family. Orphanages are more for long term care (such as when parent(s) die or when the parents relinquish custody of the child and put them up for adoption) and until they can find a suitable person willing to adopt the child, or the child reaches maturity. It would be up to the social workers to decide what would be the best option for the child, and also based on the availability of foster carers at the time.

    Regardless, if they are a minor they don't really have much of a choice.
     
    Running away and living on the streets is not a sensible thing to recommend to a minor.
     
    That's incredibly naive, and frankly rude to be blaming the OP for the situation they are in. It is clear that the person is a minor and is dependant on their parent as a provider. They have made no indication that they are employed, so it's safe to assume that they are not. Also, the OP did have some money saved up, however they state that their father took it from them. For a minor who is unemployed from a single parent or low income family, saving up $200 may not be an easy task.

    Chaos_Sorcerer reacted to Mira Yurizaki in Celsius is a poor measurement system, Fight ME!   
    Fun fact: the modern US measurement system is actually based on metric with exact conversion factors. So in effect, the US does use metric, in a backward-ass way.
     
    This won't work because both will change over time. Granted the time scale is probably larger than we can comprehend but it's best not to use a system that changes continuously.
     
    It's like why we're trying to get away from using a sphere of metal as the kilogram.

    There is nothing that comes close to its importance that we know of.

    Yeah, they are American. They use Celsius.
    You have lost, Celsius is used more widely than Farenheit.
     
     
    Besides that:
    You'd want metric measurements in bras as well. Its also used by more people than the rest...

    I honestly can't tell if this is a troll. Celcius is the flagship measurement.

    Chaos_Sorcerer reacted to PlayStation 2 in Celsius is a poor measurement system, Fight ME!   
    We probably don't do the 0-for-Earth's average temp and 100-for-the-Sun's average temp because decimal values are pathetic to deal with?
    Both Celsius and Fahrenheit have practical uses, where I'd argue Celsius works best in testing environments and Fahrenheit working best in more practical environments, like going outside, for example.
    None of the temperature scales makes any remote sense, but Celsius and Fahrenheit don't need a lot of decimals to deal with unless necessary.

    Chaos_Sorcerer reacted to Syntaxvgm in What is the meaning of life?   
    The thing I really like about Planes is that we learn that WWII happened in the Cars universe. Which means there was a Cars Hitler, a Cars holocaust, a Cars Pacific War, a Cars D-Day, a Cars nuking of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, a Cars Rape of Nanking, a Cars Battle of Iwo Jima...
    This leads to so many important questions, like: were the Cars Little Boy and Fat Man nukes sentient? Was it a suicide mission? Are ALL Cars nuclear weapons sentient? Did Tsar Bomba have a personality?
    What kind of car was Car Hitler? A VW? A forklift?
    Was there a Cars 9/11? Were the planes hijacked, or were the planes themselves radicalized?
    I could go on
    A Cars 9/11 gives a whole new layer of meaning to the phrase "let's roll"

    I don't think Linus would've been annoyed at you for talking to him, like maybe for a picture or something.
     
    But then again, I don't remember if Linus addressed this topic before... If he was ok with people coming up to him anywhere/anytime.

    Maybe it's because I hardly have a lot open, but I only have about four extensions running and usually 4-8 tabs, so that seems daunting to me and would explain a whole lot.

    If you didn't like Chrome's RAM usage, you're going to hate Vivaldi's RAM usage.
    On the bright side, it's pretty damn customizeable.
     
    P.S. I use Vivaldi on the daily, I speak from experience.
